Starling Bank Current account reviews (27464)

The perfect financial service in my pocket

This bank is the perfect blend of practical banking and useful technology. I've been waiting for years and admit that the closest I've seen from the banking market in terms of app quality is Tesco, but Starling go so much further to put all I want in my phone not just the things the other banks think would be "selling points". Too many push the app based access as a benefit but have little to no real functionality. RBS, Clydesdale, Marks and Spencer (HSBC) app offerings are not appealing no matter what they think of "Face ID" login or how handy it is to "check your balance on the go". Starling show how it should and must be done for the future. Thanks Starling! Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Fast and efficient

Great back, great app, great customer service. What more could you want Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Best Banking App ever.

Been using this bank for a while now and love it. So easy to use and love the spaces for saving. It’s great for using abroad as well. The best bit is any spending is shown on your phone within seconds. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Transparency is key.

Starling overall looks and feels like a compete game changer from the current banking system. Extremely transparent with every facet, App/spending/overdraft/charges and I’m in the process of moving everything over from Santander. Time will tell. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Simple and easy

If only every bank was this simple and easy. Couldn’t ask for more, and if I could I’d suggest it and they’d really listen. No more waiting for pending transactions, no more setting up different savings accounts, easy card controls, I just love it. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019
